Hello Kitty (1 Viewer)

When's the last time Hello Kitty was talked about this much?

Much of that talk is "That's stupid!"

But there is talk

They don't need it. Hello Kitty is an utterly massive global brand. It does like $8 billion annually. They have like 50,000 separate licensed products.

This isn't a marketing thing. It's been their official stance on the character for over a decade. It's just every time someone from Sanrio says it again everyone acts like it's somehow new information.

This could just be random Japanese weirdness

There will be a high school anime but one of the students is a crocodile

Why no reason. It isn't mentioned or commented on, this isn't a world where there are animal people

You just roll with it

I've read that about how big a brand it is

I know I never ran with the Hello Kitty crowds but I swear I could count on one hand how many times I've seen any merch or clothes out in the wild
